@sistersinhimYes, my OS did a medial release when I had my TKR. Before that, I had 2 lateral releases on each knee. These are done to help the knee and kneecap track properly.@sistersinhim had a medial release done at one time, and she mentions it from time to time. Is that what you’re thinking of?
When I had the lateral releases done years ago I wore an immobilizer for 6-8 weeks to allow the tendons to heal. After my TKR I was still having pain on the inside of my knee months afterward so I ordered my surgical report and found that my OS did a medial release during my TKR. That explained my pain in that area and eased my mind, knowing it was a normal reaction to having a release.
Thanks for those details! Was wondering why they do that and effects from it. Did it heal eventually?
